whose parents/<br />

caregivers are receiving<br />

the CSG.<br />

Children under 18<br />

receiving the CSG<br />

must be enrolled at<br />

school <strong>and</strong> the parent/<br />

caregiver must produce<br />

proof from the school,<br />

within one month of<br />

approval of the grant,<br />

of enrolment <strong>and</strong><br />

attendance by the child.<br />

In addition, the child’s<br />

report, signed by the<br />

school principal, must<br />

be submitted to the<br />

DoSD by the parent<br />

every six months.<br />

In addition, the<br />

provincial Head of the<br />

Education Department<br />

must notify the DoSD<br />

of any child who is<br />

receiving the CSG that<br />

is not registered at or<br />

attending school. In the<br />

case of a child receiving<br />

the CSG not attending<br />

school, a social worker<br />

must, in consultation<br />

with the DoE,<br />

investigate <strong>and</strong> report<br />

to the DoSD as to why<br />

the child is not enrolled<br />

or attending school. The<br />

DoSD must take steps to<br />

ensure that the child is<br />

enrolled or does attend<br />

school.<br />
